My favorite PJ moment ever was when they played Smile for my fiance in Vancouver. That was simply awesome. Thanks for the chance Dimitris.

In New Orleans 93-94 waiting in line for tickets they were playing 2 shows that week, before the internet so we had to go to Ticketmaster sites, my site was a Dillard's! We got there at 6am 4 hours before the store opened and the line was EPIC!!!! Now there were probably 100's of selling sites, the doors open and the sale starts, a few hours go and a lady on a golf cart comes out and says that all sold out!!!!!, BUT AND THIS WAS A HUGE BUT they were working on a 3rd night so everyone stay in line. The first two nights were during the week like Tuesday and wed., when they announced the 3rd night was on that Friday night! So I end up with 4 tickets for that night and it was incredible! That was the first and last time I ever saw them play BLACK for at least 10 years! I have never saw so many people crying at one time! Later everyone said that the Friday night show was by far the best show of the three! Now almost 20 years later still a huge fan and my friend at the time that I brought to that concert ended up marring and we are still going strong.........thanks PJ.

Thanks for doing this, Dimi.

The first time I heard "Alive" in 1991, I felt like I was hearing a painful chapter of my life story set to the awesome music for which I had been waiting. (I mean, acts such as Wilson Phillips, Amy Grant, Nelson, New Kids on the Block, Extreme, Color Me Badd, and so on were dominating the airwaves; it was truly a dark time for rock and roll.)

I'll explain. I was told at a very young age that my biological father had died while I was still a newborn. (He and my mother had already split up.) As the years went by, I learned that my mother received this news from a less-than-reliable source -- namely, a rival for her affection -- so I became more skeptical of the story and more hopeful that he was still alive. The story was still somewhat believable because he had a severe form of Type 1 diabetes as a juvenile and wasn’t supposed to live past age 18, but I had this shred of circumstance on which to hang my faith. So, when I first heard Eddie Vedder sing the chorus, the 16-year-old me always imagined it as my dead/missing father singing/pleading to me that he was still alive. (A misinterpretation, I know, but that’s how I heard it.)

We tried searching for him and his family members a few times in the early 1990s but always hit a wall. Then, in 1998, I got a call from my mother -- she and my grandmother had found him. Not only had they found him but he was living 45 minutes away from where I was living at the time (Sarasota, Florida) in the town of my birth/conception (St. Petersburg, Florida), no less!

He was still alive!

There is so much more to the story, but I have bored y'all for long enough.
